Vat down to 15 % (or is that prices increased by 2.5 %?)

Filed under: — kevin_svek @ 5:04 pm

Strange thing here – VAT has gone down by 2.5% but maplins prices are the same as they were before

Jet Turbine ATX PC Casewas £39.99 (Autumn winter catalogue) – now remarkably …. £39.99

Price in catalogue 34.034 + vat at 17.5% = £39.99

Price on website

Ex Vat Total: £34.77
Standard UK Delivery: £0.00
VAT Total: £5.22
Total: £39.99

So instead of us getting 74p off the price – they make 74p more profit

Obviously other places have hit the headlines over this – e.g. Severn Bridge but all quiet about maplin what a con – thanks chancellor
